Crème Glacée Menthe Chocolat à la menthe fraîche - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Aquibio's mint chocolate plant-based ice cream, made with fresh mint, achieves a perfect score of 100 in the plant based ice cream tubs category. The breakdown assigns 35 points each to company headquarters and manufacturing, with production confirmed in Villeneuve-sur-Lot. Certifications contribute 5 points, supported by EU organic status with ingredients sourced from both EU and non-EU agriculture — a transparent reflection of the diverse origins of plant-based inputs including cocoa and other tropical ingredients. Distribution accounts for 15 points, proximity for 5, and ingredients for 7 — a slight reduction, consistent with the mixed agricultural origins disclosed.

The use of fresh mint as a flavouring, rather than mint extract or artificial flavouring, is a meaningful quality distinction. Combined with organic certification and plant-based formulation, the product addresses a convergence of consumer priorities — sustainability, clean ingredients, and dairy-free alternatives — that is driving growth in the premium ice cream segment. Aquibio's consistent use of EU organic labelling across its range reflects a coherent brand commitment rather than selective certification.

With a percentile of 91, this ice cream outscores 91% of the 35 products in the plant based ice cream tubs category — an exceptional result placing it in the top 9% of a specialist and growing segment. For consumers seeking a certified organic, French-produced plant-based ice cream made with fresh mint and transparent ingredient sourcing, Aquibio delivers one of the most credentialled products available in its category.
